{
    public class Startup
    {
        public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            services.AddControllersWithViews();
        }

        public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
        {
            if (env.IsDevelopment())

            app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
            {
                endpoints.MapControllerRoute(
                    name: "default",
                    pattern: "{controller=Demo}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
            });
        }

}

Create new folder named Controllers. In this folder, create new controller named DemoController.cs as below:

using LearnASPNETCoreMVC5.Models;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace LearnASPNETCoreMVC5.Controllers
{
    [Route("demo")]
    public class DemoController : Controller
    {
        [Route("index")]
        [Route("")]
        [Route("~/")]
        public IActionResult Index()
        {
            var products = new List<Product> {
                new Product {
                    Id = "p01",
                    Name = "Name 1",
                    Photo = "thumb1.gif",
                    Price = 5.5,
                    Quantity = 4
                },
                new Product {
                    Id = "p02",
                    Name = "Name 2",
                    Photo = "thumb2.gif",
                    Price = 7,
                    Quantity = 3
                },
                new Product {
                    Id = "p03",
                    Name = "Name 3",
                    Photo = "thumb3.gif",
                    Price = 8,
                    Quantity = 6
                }
            };
            ViewBag.products = products;
            return View();
        }
    }
}

Create new folder named Views. In this folder, create new folder named Demo. Create new view named Index.cshtml as below:

<html>
<head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>Index</title>
</head>
<body>

    <h3>Products List</h3>
    <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
        <tr>
            <th>Id</th>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Photo</th>
            <th>Price</th>
            <th>Quantity</th>
            <th>Total</th>
        </tr>
        @foreach (var product in ViewBag.products)
        {
            <tr>
                <td>@product.Id</td>
                <td>@product.Name</td>
                <td><img src="~/images/@product.Photo" width="60" /></td>
                <td>@product.Price</td>
                <td>@product.Quantity</td>
                <td>@(product.Price * product.Quantity)</td>
            </tr>
        }
    </table>
